I'm using WUH WUH WUH WINDOWS!

[spatch]

This here's a Google video of a Microsoft promotional video sent out to retailers in the late 80s to tout all the awesome new features of Windows for the 386. The Google video description says it all: "Boring until the 7 minute mark when the production is taken over by crack-smoking monkeys."

Kids, this is what cocaine did for the 80s. And perhaps Patrick Bateman targeted the wrong people.

Don't forget, this promotional video was aimed at retailers; the very last line reveals that you're supposed to identify with the man who gave her the flowers. Sell Windows 386 and you might score with a nice lady in a business suit who goes completely insane while pasting clip art of space shuttles into lame-ass word processing documents.

I wonder if you had to present the product as "Wuh-Wuh-Wuh-Windows."

The way you can really tell it's a great document is that that space shuttle is on EVERY PAGE.

Just one space shuttle would give the villainous T-Bone Pickett an opening, but she went the extra mile.

I can just see T-Bone Pickett now shaking his fist in frustration.

CURSE YOU, LINDA!
